Timothy Keller

Timothy Keller is pastor and founder of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan, New York. The Influentials Issue of New York magazine featured Keller as “the most successful Christian evangelist in the city” for his engagement with the young professional and artist demographics of the city. Keller is author of The Reason for God: Belief of God in an Age of Skepticism, named Book of the Year by World Magazine in 2008. In the book, he defends Christian faith from the challenges of skeptics and atheists. The book focuses especially on the interaction of science and religion, maintaining that evolutionary theory need not be considered a deathblow to faith. However, Keller stated that he prefers to be “noncommittal” on the theories of origins in his writing, so as not to alienate those who prefer one view of creation over another. To date, Keller has helped start over 100 churches of various denominations throughout the world.
